Most kitchen-table inventors kill their own ideas with:
"I'm not an engineer"
"I can't afford a lawyer"
"I don't know CAD"
All solvable problems. None are deal-breakers.
You bring the vision. We bring the roadmap.

The manufacturing catch-22 that kills hardware startups:
Manufacturers won't quote you without professional CAD files.
Engineering firms charge $5K-15K for CAD documentation.
Innovation shouldn't require a trust fund.

Monday thread for inventors who keep waiting for the right time
Your idea does not need to be perfect
It needs to be protected
Stop planning to plan
What idea are you finally acting on?

Reality check: Someone filed a patent for your idea this morning. They didn't know it was yours first.
Patents go to who files first—not who thought of it first.
Stop waiting. Start protecting.

The uncomfortable truth about patents nobody tells you 😰
"First to file" beats "first to think of it" every single time.
While you're planning, someone else is filing.
Stop waiting. Start protecting.

Every inventor exists in two states:

About to change the world
Watching someone else do it with "their" idea

Choose wisely.

How's your invention idea coming along?
Still just a sketch? Still waiting for "the right time"?
The question isn't IF you can bring your idea to life.
The question is: Do you need more time... or the right tool?

The garage is where innovation happens:

- Apple started in a garage
- Amazon started in a garage
- Google started in a garage
- HP started in a garage
And idea theft? That happens in garages too.
Protection isn't optional anymore.

Most inventors skip the step that separates success from fantasy:
Before patents, prototypes, or pitches, answer this:
Are people currently paying money for inferior solutions to your problem?
The market decides success, not the inventor.
